  - Improper trust of forwarded headers in RouterListener::onKernelFinishRequest() in Symfony HttpKernel
    versions prior to 5.4.56, 6.x prior to 6.4.50, 7.x prior to 7.4.23, and 8.x prior to 8.1.11 allows a
    remote attacker to control the host, scheme, and port of absolute URLs generated for the rest of the
    request, poisoning links in pages stored by a shared cache and in e-mails sent after the page was
    rendered.When a page renders an inline fragment (render() in Twig, or an ESI tag rendered inline),
    SubRequestHandler temporarily adds 127.0.0.1 to the trusted proxies, and RouterListener rebuilds the
    router context from the main request while that trust is still active, so the X-Forwarded-* and Forwarded
    headers of a request whose client address is 127.0.0.1 are trusted even though that address is not a
    configured trusted proxy. From that point on, every absolute URL the router generates for the rest of the
    main request takes its host, scheme, and port from headers sent by the client, including URLs produced by
    url() in Twig and by UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_URL. Applications are affected when they are reached
    over HTTP from 127.0.0.1, for example behind a TLS terminator, reverse proxy, local HTTP cache, or sidecar
    proxy on the same host, and that proxy passes the client's forwarded headers along. With the default
    configuration (framework.trusted_proxies unset), all forwarded headers, including X-Forwarded-Host, are
    trusted during that window. Applications served through php-fpm, mod_php, or a proxy on another host are
    not affected. When framework.trusted_hosts is configured, a forwarded host outside the list is rejected,
    but the scheme and port can still be changed. (CVE-2026-123339)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
